The workers have also begun to estimate how much they will be able to increase their income during this time, as if they are preparing for how much their wages will increase these days. Even with this big celebration, the amount of various processing is even larger, and the quantity is constantly large and in time, and even the boss is willing to settle the settlement at twice the salary. So although it is a little tiring, you can achieve the savings that you can get in the past year a year in advance. So everyone is also working hard, and now it is getting late, and during this time, everyone is also making money, and they all have a certain amount of income to come to the teahouse restaurant to make the so-called AA system method to order food.

This AA system also became more popular after Wang Guorui came to this world, because Wang Guorui advocated the so-called payment of each account for things such as banquets for his civil servants. After all, if one person invites a group of people, it is really not suitable, and it will cost too much. Moreover, paying each account in this way is conducive to avoiding any corrupt behavior. After all, the Chinese wine table is an important place of corruption since ancient times, so this kind of payment of each account, although everyone at the wine table is a little weaker, but to a certain extent, it curbs that unhealthy practice.

The so-called poor learn from the rich, rich learn from officials, officials do this, and the rich also start to learn. Then the poor began to learn. And then everyone also found that this is also beneficial, after all, if according to the traditional Chinese practice, if you invite me, I will also invite you, and everyone will be treated at the end of the last circle. After the last lap, the entire circle of friends broke the bank for no reason, and everyone lost a lot of time. Just like Wang Guorui in later generations, he has also heard that everyone is afraid of the so-called wedding banquet, as well as the so-called various banquets, because this kind of various banquets is not a treat for a long time, it is blackmail. Everyone is embarrassed by the situation, and it is not good not to go. But this makes traditional morality unhealthy. So you have to keep up with the times! In this way, everyone pays their own accounts, which is conducive to everyone's normal and equal communication, so that everyone will not be very embarrassed for the so-called human face.

"You are just calculating some of your own small families, your income has increased, but what about the imperial court? The imperial court has spent so much money, so what will happen to the imperial court then? How about the country then. The country's money has flowed into your hands, and then the treasury will have no money, and you will take the state's money to be dashing, so are you the people of the country? That Xiucai still squirted hard.

But the ordinary people don't care about this at all, they just notice that their income has increased, and they have reached the savings of the budget for a year in advance, and of course they are satisfied. Especially now that they feel very good, and when they have money in their hands, they naturally dare to spend money. What country are they. They don't care. The important thing for them now is to save up, not to do anything to think about national affairs. Only those who have nothing to do in their leisure time go back to think about national affairs.

That Xiucai saw that these workers didn't care much about what they said, and immediately said: "The rise and fall of the world, the husband is responsible, the emperor does a lot of things, and even has to build a lot of construction, how can this be endured?" I've heard that many local governments are saying that they want to build a large number of buildings. To celebrate the New Year, we decided to start construction after the official New Year. Is it a good thing to build roads and houses everywhere? How much wealth does it cost to build such a large project? If you don't know how to be thrifty, where is this way to govern the country? The way to govern the country is to be frugal, and if you can't even be thrifty, the country will perish sooner or later. ”

"Huh. You say that building a large construction project is destruction? But do you see that? This large-scale construction project is to build roads in various places, and after the roads are built, it will be more convenient for us to do business at that time. All kinds of merchants can circulate quickly, so if the road is good, it may be able to save one-third of the travel time! Maybe even more. Do you know what this means? Saving time means more transactions can be made in less time, generating more wealth. ”

"Even, after the various roads are connected, it can promote the exchange of goods. The time saved, the ability to keep many things fresh has also been improved a lot, and the fish and shrimp along the coast can also be sold deeper inland. And after going deeper, how much demand can be expanded, do you know? Did you know that when demand expands, coastal fishermen can earn more income? Even all kinds of people can benefit from it, so you haven't even thought about it, right? ”

"Isn't it great that everyone can benefit more or less and increase their income when such a circle of people comes down? Everyone has increased their income, so isn't this Guotai Min'an? So if you think that this is a big construction project by the imperial court, then this big construction is also beneficial. ”

"Even those buildings are not for the selfish desires of the emperor or others, but for the good of the people! Isn't it to build roads to promote exchanges and trade in goods, and many to build primary schools? Isn't it a good thing that the imperial court is building schools on a large scale now? There are all kinds of basic things, don't look useless now, but in the future, we will definitely be able to make our country develop violently. In fact, there is a lot of construction now, and that is for the future development! ”

Obviously there are people who understand, and they know the importance of this infrastructure. Don't look at investing in infrastructure, which in ancient parlance means "building a lot of buildings", but in fact, people who are really aware of the important role of this will definitely not take it lightly. The New Deal of the Americans, Roosevelt, relied on a large number of cheap labor during the economic crisis to build a lot of infrastructure, while Europe fought a lot of infrastructure a few years later, a lot of infrastructure was destroyed, and after the war, a lot of money had to be invested in reconstruction. However, the Americans succeeded in obtaining the most comprehensive infrastructure at the lowest price, and then gave them a solid foundation for their post-war development. Without this infrastructure, Americans may not have been able to develop much after World War II. After all, the country's development potential still depends on the infrastructure with a large foundation, and the infrastructure seems to be a large-scale construction in the short term, which is not understood by ordinary people, but it is necessary for the country's long-term development in the future.

But many of those who lived in the feudal period did not know the benefits of large-scale construction. Their thinking is still the same as that of the past, and they still think that they must save. In their eyes, the criterion of the country's prosperity is that the ropes of the copper coins in the treasury are rotten, and the copper coins are all rusty. However, these idiots do not know at all that this so-called enrichment of the treasury is not necessarily the real prosperity of the people and the strength of the country, and many people in ancient times did not understand economic knowledge and did not understand economic laws at all.

Immediately, some workers said, "A lot of people from my hometown haven't learned much, so they haven't found a job at all." And we are now building a lot of construction in the imperial court, and I heard that there will be a lot more construction in the future, and our fellow villagers have also found jobs. They don't have any skills, they go straight to the construction site to do things, so they can get a long-term way to make a living. And even if you work as a construction worker in the city, it is better and the income is higher than farming in your hometown. ”

When that Xiucai heard this, his face immediately turned green, and he immediately asked, "Doesn't that mean that more people plan to work in the city?" ”

"That's right, a lot of construction companies have told us that if someone is willing to introduce their fellow villagers to work, then they are basically willing to accept it. Many construction companies are also hiring people in large numbers now! "Yes! Our cement factories have also begun to recruit a large number of workers, and then a large amount of cement will be used for construction! "The same is true for our steel, and everyone has begun to prepare, recruiting a large number of workers!" ……

That Xiucai's face was even darker, originally they were already facing a shortage of human resources, but a large number of people were sucked from the countryside to the city again, so that the labor force in the countryside was even more scarce. The life of those landlords is getting harder and harder. Not only did they not support the people to work in the cities, but once the labor force was absorbed by the cities, they would naturally have to pay more to retain the tenants. Even they don't have the privilege of being exempt from taxes, but continue to pay taxes. Moreover, the land is not allowed to be abandoned, and if it is abandoned, not only can it not reduce taxes, but it will also have to impose various surcharges. This is simply killing them, and the price of inviting a tenant is getting higher and higher. And they may not be able to make any money at all in a year, and they will not be able to maintain a luxurious life. Even then the standard of living plummeted, so they would definitely have to face more difficult days.

"Is this still going to let us live? What is the use of this imperial court, those of us who are scholars? Treating us scholars so harshly, it is a country that is not a country! Etiquette is bad, it's really etiquette! The old Xiucai still said angrily.

But apparently, he was talking about bad manners here, but he didn't pay attention to him. Because no matter how fierce they are, they are all in the past. Now no one is obliged to feed them, who cannot pick and choose, even if anyone has to work in person now, and it is impossible to rely on the so-called unearned income. Nima, even Wang Guorui, the emperor's concubine, has to work in person to earn money, why do you, a scholar, enjoy the people's free worship? Although the work of the concubines may be just to earn some pocket money, they are also setting an example! (To be continued.) )
